There were only three very small conflicts that have been fixed.

Having entered 2021, it was necessary to update the copyright years at the
top of the source files. We recommend that you do this for all your
project-specific source files also.

There is an answer for all the referee points now. I also did some minor
edits in the paper. But we are still over the limit by around 250 words.
The only remaining point that is not yet addressed (and has '####' around
it) is the discussion on parallelization and its effect on reproducibility.

Raul's added point on the answer to the referee was very good, so I edited
it a little to be more clear (and removed his name).
Also, after looking in a few parts of the text, I fixed a few typos.

A new directory has been added at the top of the project's source called
'peer-review'. The raw reviews of the paper by the editors and referees has
been added there as '1-review.txt'. All the main points raised by the
referees have been listed in a numbered list and addressed (mostly) in
'1-answers.txt'. The text of the paper now also includes all the
implemented answers to the various points.

Until now, the Zenodo identifier was manually written in the paper. But now
we have the Zenodo DOI in 'metadata.conf', so its much more robust to get
it from there (in case updated versions of the paper is published).

Some minor conflicts came up in 'initialize.mk' and 'verify.mk'. For the
former, I chose the version on Maneage, for the latter, I kept the 'master'
version on the checksums of this project, but kept the Maneage version for
the rest of the improvements there (like printing the verified files as
LaTeX comments in 'verify.tex'.
While testing the conflicts, I noticed a bug (in the LaTeX macro for the
number of years in the Menke+20 paper) in the previous build, thanks to the
verification step :-)! Fortunately it wasn't actually printed in the PDF,
so a normal reader won't recognize.
The bug was caused by the recently added meta-data/commented lines in the
'tools-per-year.txt' file: when calculating the number of years studied in
that paper, we were simply counting all the lines and we had forgot to
correct this after adding comments. As a result, the un-used LaTeX macro
file was saying that they have studied 47 years instead of the real 31
years! This element was actually used in the very first (+40 page!) draft
of the paper that was summarized to fit into the journal limits.

Possible semantic conflicts (that may not show up as Git conflicts but may
cause a crash in your project after the merge):
1) The project title (and other basic metadata) should be set in
'reproduce/analysis/conf/metadata.conf'. Please include this file in
your merge (if it is ignored because of '.gitattributes'!).
2) Consider importing the changes in 'initialize.mk' and 'verify.mk' (if
you have added all analysis Makefiles to the '.gitattributes' file
(thus not merging any change in them with your branch). For example
with this command:
git diff master...maneage -- reproduce/analysis/make/initialize.mk
3) The old 'verify-txt-no-comments-leading-space' function has been
replaced by 'verify-txt-no-comments-no-space'. The new function will
also remove all white-space characters between the columns (not just
white space characters at the start of the line). Thus the resulting
check won't involve spacing between columns.
A common set of steps are always necessary to prepare a project for
publication. Until now, we would simply look at previous submissions and
try to follow them, but that was prone to errors and could cause
confusion. The internal infrastructure also didn't have some useful
features to make good publication possible. Now that the submission of a
paper fully devoted to the founding criteria of Maneage is complete
(arXiv:2006.03018), it was time to formalize the necessary steps for easier
submission of a project using Maneage and implement some low-level features
that can make things easier.
With this commit a first draft of the publication checklist has been added
to 'README-hacking.md', it was tested in the submission of arXiv:2006.03018
and zenodo.3872248. To help guide users on implementing the good practices
for output datasets, the outputs of the default project shown in the paper
now use the new features). After reading the checklist, please inspect
these.
Some other relevant changes in this commit:
- The publication involves a copy of the necessary software
tarballs. Hence a new target ('dist-software') was also added to
package all the project's software tarballs in one tarball for easy
distribution.
- A new 'dist-lzip' target has been defined for those who want to
distribute an Lzip-compressed tarball.
- The '\includetikz' LaTeX macro now has a second argument to allow
configuring the '\includegraphics' call when the plot should not be
built, but just imported.
